2 bed bungalow for sale

Norham Close, Shirley, Southampton, Hampshire SO16

Situated in one of the quietest cul-de-sac locations and within walking distance of Southampton General Hospital, this two/three-bedroom detached bungalow is being sold with the added benefit of vacant possession.

Locally, you are well served by an array of local shops, the M3 and M27 motorway networks, Shirley’s vibrant high street, the open spaces of St James Park and the Sports Centre, as well as doctors’ and dentists’ surgeries and veterinary practices.

The well-proportioned and favourably laid-out accommodation, accessed via a handy entrance porch, comprises a hallway leading to the sitting room at the front of the property, where a large bay window allows plenty of natural light to flood in, complemented by a decoratively tiled fireplace. There are two double bedrooms, with the principal bedroom also boasting a large bay window. Both bedrooms are served by a three-piece shower room.

Towards the rear of the home, you will find the kitchen, which in turn leads to a handy and versatile room that could potentially be used as a third bedroom, a second reception room, or perhaps incorporated into the kitchen to create an open-plan kitchen/dining room. The home further benefits from ample off-road parking on the driveway and a detached garage, offering useful additional storage or the option to create a home gym or home office. There is also an additional shed to the rear of the garage.

To complete the property, there is a very low-maintenance, courtyard-style garden to the rear and side of the home, with extensive areas laid to patio. There is a substantial loft space, fully boarded, offering substantial storage or the possibility of a loft conversion subject to planning permission.

Situated in a popular residential area of Upper Shirley, Norham Close is a quiet cul-de-sac offering a convenient and well-connected location. A range of local amenities can be found nearby, including the shops, cafés and everyday conveniences of Shirley and Winchester Road.

The area is particularly well suited to families, with a choice of nearby schools, including Shirley Infant School, Shirley Junior School and Upper Shirley High School. Southampton General Hospital is also within easy reach, making the location ideal for healthcare professionals and commuters alike.

For those who enjoy outdoor recreation, Southampton Common and the Southampton Sports Centre offer extensive green spaces and leisure facilities nearby.
